HOW TO: Excellent Papaya Zoap Cultivation Yield: 3 plants Time: Approximately 10 weeks from seed to harvest Ingredients: - 3 Papaya Zoap seeds - Terra Preta MJ mix soil - Water - PK Booster (for late flowering stage) Instructions: 1. Planting: - Plant 3 Papaya Zoap seeds in Terra Preta MJ mix soil. 2. Seedling care: - Provide daily watering to the seedlings. - Maintain a consistent watering schedule as they grow. 3. Vegetative stage: - Allow plants to grow vigorously in the nutrient-rich Terra Preta MJ mix. - Continue regular watering as needed. 4. Flowering stage: - When plants enter late flowering, apply PK Booster as needed. - Maintain water schedule, adjusting as necessary. 5. Harvest (after approximately 10 weeks): - Plants should display a well-structured, symmetric "chandelier" appearance. - Look for dense, conical-shaped buds with attractive purple and blue hues. Notes: - This strain grows quickly, reaching maturity in about 10 weeks from seed. - The Terra Preta MJ mix provides sufficient nutrients for most of the growing cycle. - Minimal intervention is required beyond regular watering and late-stage PK boosting. Result: Enjoy your symmetrical, vigorous Papaya Zoap plants with dense, colorful buds. The minimal-fuss growing process yields impressive results in a relatively short time frame.

1/12/23 all plants stretching nicely. P4 is vary one sided and P1-3 have similar structures. Starting 12/12 cycle tomorrow, still no pre-flower but should have signs by the end of next week. Hoping for at least 2 oz of or each plant.

Nothing new to report she's building her flowers , nice and steady do far seems u just need to take things slowly with autos compared to photoperiod. Being the first try at this its been a good learning experience with hopefully some nice buds at the end of the grow as we all hope .. Real curious to see how they fill out in the next coming weeks/days ..

She is developing nicely, haven’t really been doing much to her, other than tucking some leaves away. Comparing her to her mothers diary, she is pretty much on par in terms of flower development, maybe even slightly ahead, as I decreased the light distance much earlier.

Week 11 Jan. 13 - 19, 2020 Jan. 17, 2020 I'm a few days late updating week 11. So here it goes. I harvested the 3 Zkittlez plants. I enjoyed growing these. They didn't get as tall as I'd liked but that was my fault, I kept my lights too close during the early stages of the grow. I learned that these auto flowers don't not need to be LST'd. My Zkittlez #1 I over stressed and it yielded out only half of what the other plants did. Of the other two plants...one was LST'd and the other was left to grow more naturally with very little training. They both yielded within 1 tenth of an ounce of each other. Final dry weight is 2.5 oz. Could've been better, but it's my first time and I learned a lot. Here's a link to my diary for Zkiitlez if you'd like to check out my first grow experience in more detail. https://growdiaries.com/diaries/44659-fastbuds-zkittlez-auto-grow-journal-by-weedwacker/week/212148 Looking forward to harvesting my Californian Snow plants which still fattening up and putting on major trichomes. No amber trichomes but wow the plants are frosty and they have a strong pungent smell. When the main cola is bent a little sideways it really begins out the smell. The smell is like a gassy fuel, diesel fuel, strong chemically smell. I love it. CS #3 is giving me some problems. The pics might show it. The leaf tips are curling up and thr leaf edges are turning brown. Not sure if I can correct this befor harvest. It's late into flower. I may just ride it out until then. I've topped dress once weekly for the last 4 weeks with kelp, and a blend from roots organic for bloom 4-6-3.

So final week of grow. And FINALLY! My order have arrived! I leave them another week in grow Mode just to get those roots bigger. Still using only grow, power roots and pure zym by plagron at 2.1EC.

This poor, sad little girl. I feel bad for neglecting her earlier on. But hopefully she will live up to her namesake and persevere! (I guess it is a little messed up that the strain is Widow Remedy and I killed both of her husbands😕) Anyway... So bugs suck, and I sprayed with some neem oil and put out a sticky trap. Fertilized with some of the Coast of Maine and watered it in with some lime water. Heat wave is moving through right now, I hope she likes it hot😎 Forgive my slurred speech in the video, it's been a long week and my brain is addled😜

Just keep watering as it drys. Supporting buds along the way that are getting too heavy. Smells like skunk and gas. Little fruit but not much. Trics still getting thick. Look forward to it finishing. Tricomes still cloudy. Little amber on sugar leaves but it's still going strong. Some leave fading finally to fall colors.

Welcome! Week 7 flower! I'm dying in anticipation. Part of me just wants to stare at it forever, because I'm pretty sure the color will get darker when its dried Pistols are turning orange top, so getting closer. I took a few videos this time. One shows the Mars Hydro lights, and my tents I'm using. The other is the best I could do to capture the beauty of this plant. I wish I had a tent full of only her. I cut way back on nutes, I only plan to feed one more time and will be checking the trichome color next week. Overall I'm super happy 😄 If you have some colorful grows going let me know and I will check it out Thanks for checking out my med grow, see you on week 8.

Day 1: I got two of these Sweet Gelato seeds free from @Zamnesia. I’m only planting one at the moment . I’m really excited about growing it. I’ve really loved any Gelato I have tasted. I have my substrate prepared and my veg space is ready to go. I have put the seed in Ph’d water for 24hrs first and I will add to the soil tomorrow night. I’ll wet the soil down tomorrow morning with Ph’d water and I’ll put it the veg space with the lights on to warm up the soil before adding the seed. Day 2: Seed has been moved into the substrate and pot is now in Veg Space under 40watt CFL bulbs but once the seed germinates I will switch on the 200watt CFL. This is my least favourite part of growing, the wait for the seedlings 🌱 to break through the soil. I’ve planted the seed to one side of the pot as I find this makes LST easier. The plant will be spending it’s first 2 to 3 weeks in this veg space while I wait for my Purple Punch to finish in my main grow space. 72hrs Later: Houston we have lift off 🚀 The seed first started to peed through the soil after only 48hrs. That’s the fasted I’ve ever seen, hopefully it’s a sign of things to come. Leaves still haven’t opened but it’s fully above ground now.

Hello, fin de la semaine 2. Quelques petits problèmes pour bien gérer mon EC, du à une eau vraiment très dure. Au niveau des arrosages, je suis passé à un arrosage tout les jours depuis quelques jours, les plantes semblent apprécier. Elles ont repris de la vigueur, à confirmer avec le temps. Voilà pour cette semaine. Happy grow...😎

Plant is looking good 😊, fully recovered from defoliation, I set the lights closer, switched them to 12h of light per day, and did some spraying to control pests with neem oil and organic Marseille soap, everything good so far . Can't wait to see the flowers forming. I used a net to open up the branches, and get more colas, it worked but I think stressed out the plant a bit and the fact that I did it in the flowering period didn't helped, so next time I'll do it way before, but I recently bought the net so.. anyway I kept the net on for three days, and now I decided to remove it cause was getting me lot of troubles accessing the setup in general, watering, basically made impossible any movement inside the tent. Still did is thing and now I have not the best even canopy but many more top colas for sure. Please give me any advice, I've noticed it is drying out lot faster, humidity is still at 58% but I believe the roots are much more developed. I will leave home for 2 or 3 weeks, my sister will have the duty to just water, can't ask her more, hope for the best. So updates will be very rare but she'll take pictures for me and for us :D .

Grew really tall. "Explained up top", buds are really nice and dense, so overall I'm harpy with the yield. Harvested more or less whole. Drying 7 days. At least 3 more to go. Will get to trimming and weighting soon. Had a little tester last wk. But, was hard to get the measure of it. Was sweet, but pretty planty.. buds, as I said are dense.
